Horror By Black Authors (2021)

[@Gabwabby]

Yeah Slice Of Cherry is YA, I read it many years ago and don't really remember. Might pick that up again, it has such a pretty cover

[@jacoblater]

Thanks for video, I subscribed to you for over a year as I'm a black horror author, now working on my second novel 😀 and getting my first on audible.

[@aerisyacalis2206]

Yessss more POC recs pls! 🖤

[@karamarie6781]

OMG thank you! I had The Resurrectionist on my list, but ...animal cruelty? HELL TO THE F*** NOOOOOO! Just took this book off my list!

[@MsAwesomeSaucey]

Thank you for these recs. I’ve been looking for horror books by Black authors! 🖤🖤🖤

[@catarinathebookworm]

Every single time you talk about the resurrectionist I believe it will be an awesome amazing horror novel for me and feel called out for not having read it yet ahahah

[@ginayoung130]

I'm reading the very last of the African Immortals trilogy by Tananarive Due. She is such a hidden gem in horror literature. Love her! And I bought The Murders of Molly Southbourne while watching this ☺

[@allhallowsqueen666]

Read Ring Shout last year and it was definitely one of my favs!

[@Jillybeanzxo]

Don’t feel bad Jordaline, in regards to White is For Witching, I READ the damn thing, and cannot for the life of me give a better description of it than you did 😂. But Goodreads tells me I loved it apparently so 🤷‍♀️

[@piinkprincess]

This was a good list! The ones I've read were all amazing. Heads up to anyone looking for these, many of them are on Hoopla! Currently listening to The Good House rn on there and I saw many of these titles browsing the horror section.

[@colouredingreens]

You mentioned recommendations.Ambrose Ibsen is always a good spooky read.

[@karamiddleton2920]

It always takes me forever to watch your videos, because I at each book (the ones I don't already have) and go to the Kindle store, where I either buy the book, pre order it, add it to a wish list, or add it to my Kindle Unlimited. Every single one. 😁 Edit: I sent you a recommendation on Instagram. OMG please do a middle grade horror video! I'm doing Middle Grade March, and I'd love to add some to my TBR.

[@clancyconnolly495]

I immediately added almost all of these to my TBR, because it’s the law... this was an awesome video- lots of great recommendations!! 😁

[@mariluu2280]

I love your videos so much! They're so much fun! 😁 Also, as always, amazing recommendations!!! I'm especially looking forward to read "The Good House"! Sounds so good! 😃🌟

[@adrianagarcia7024]

The Forgotten Girl is actually a middle grade book. It gets a bit dark for a kids' book. It plays on some real life history that's messed up. It was good!

[@fikratdouk6675]

I adore your recommendations and your channel deserved more attention and more then million subscribers ❤

[@rubyjreads7503]

i purchase a few of your recommendations. Since I've been purchasing actual books, I've not looked at my Kindle in a while. I finally turned it on and said..oh wow!, i have that book. Your book recs are always on point.

[@midnightcryptworx]

my amazon book wishlist has tripled since i have discovered your channel....thank you.

Warning ⚠️ Watching her videos will cause lots of book buying with amazing reads! 😜

[@simonenina_]

"The Good House"!

[@formerclarity8836]

I honestly feel like we need to have a talk as a community about The Resurrectionist. I'm going to give White full credit for both the concept (amazing), and the plotting (e.g., telling the story as a mystery from the perspective of the victim is a great idea), but on a sheer sentence-by-sentence level, this is one of the worst-written books I've ever read. The characterizations are weak; the psychology is so superficial that it's borderline laughable - I honestly thought it might be jokes for the first quarter. The female protagonist actually spends a sizable percentage of time thinking about how great her own breasts are, which is basically the classic example of a man being incompetent to write a female character. I would never tell anyone NOT to read a book, I just really find this kind of thing SO disappointing. If the horror community continues to accept writing on this level, we're going to continue to receive writing on this level. It's not fine.

[@Booksinthedark]

Hide and seeker has a beautiful cover! I added half the books mentioned to my tbr lol🤦🏻‍♀️

[@bradwalker6433]

Ooh! So I read both "Lakewood" and "Catherine House" last year and really liked them both. "Lakewood" is more of a horror/sci-fi sort of deal than a thriller. "Catherine House" is kind of hard to pin down. I wouldn't call it a thriller... maybe more of a gothic mystery? Although even to call it a "mystery" doesn't seem 100% correct. It's weird and I enjoyed it, but I wouldn't recommend it to some one who's looking for action or answers to the questions the story poses... if that makes sense? Really interesting though.

[@UniquelyTisa]

Nana is a fucking awesome book!!

[@NakiasHideaway]

Hide and Seeker is on my TBR too and I can't wait to read it! 🖤

[@kasandra1641]

Hi ! QUEEN going broke again ! Thanks to you im so into horror ! I need them all ♡ plus can we just take a sec for your nails ! FREAKING ICON

[@bezjork]

Still new to this whole reading thing so these videos are very helpful! ☺️

[@bucketofentrails]

I've read White Is For Witching and I don't know what it's about either 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@karamarie6781]

Gorgeous cat!

[@ElizabethSagewood]

Oh man, I really disliked Catherine House, it was my first DNF of 2021 - Maybe you'll see something in there that I didn't. I got about 60% of the way through and was like, nah...

[@gelaigurl]

I have to disagree on those molly books. Meh.
